“…A conceivable mechanism for the induction of tumorspecific immunity by expression of RSV-F in combination with cytokines might be the xenogenization of tumor cells by presentation of viral antigens on the cell surface in conjunction with MHC-I molecules leading to CTL-mediated tumor cell destruction (47,48).…”

“…For LLT, the simplest enhancement mechanism could be the infection of the cells themselves: in fact, in vitro, they sustain the synthesis of HSV-2 infectious virus particles without showing evidence of cytopathologic alterations, on the contrary, cell multiplication is stimulated [29]. This, however, cannot apply here, because HSV-2 infected LLT cells become xenogenized and thus prone to immunologic destruction whereby tumor formation is slowed rather than enhanced.…”

“…The infection of these cells with HSV-2 proceeds unusually insofar as no cytopathic effects are observed although infectious virus particles are produced (an approximately 50-fold increase after 3 days). In addition, cell multiplication is significantly enhanced as a result of the infection [17].…”
